with some of the Mahalians looking at his way with glares on their faces which he ignored.
It was night time according to the lights above dimming by the time he tracked the necklace at a temple with doors open. He walked inside walking several corridors till he reached a large room with a statue sitting in a cross legged pose at one end and a young Mahalian Human wearing orange clothing lying asleep on the floor in front of it with a hand holding his necklace.
He had felt anger arriving went to a large candle holder stick next to the wall attached to a statue of a Mahalian male wearing twin clothes as the male on the floor.
He took off the lighted candle and with it in hand mentally ordered to the Mahalian “Get up.”
The Mahalian he saw got up with eyes closed as he mentally ordered “Give me back my necklace now.”
His order was obeyed which he pocketed it to feel a tugging sensation from the area but ignored it.
He heard water sounds nearby mentally ordered “Follow me now.”
The Mahalian he saw followed him. He walked several corridors till where he heard water moving fast like a fountain. He walked further nearing the water’s source till the candle went out with a whoosh.
He heard a gasp sound of surprise from behind him followed by blinking his eyes as electric lights from above turned on. He discovered himself in a courtyard with lights from above illuminating the contents.
He saw was he surrounded by Mahalian males in orange clothing away with one in his line of sight holding his necklace. He brought a hand to his pocket to discover the necklace gone then with anger snapped the candle in two and charged towards the Mahalian holding the necklace.
His charge was blocked by the same Mahalian he mentally controlled who met his karate with equal karate. He found himself getting controlled by his anger enough to get knocked to the ground and mist blown in his face. It made him sleepy and he fell asleep only to wake up in a room lying on a cot. Him suffering from some sickness that made him throw up repeatedly onto the floor over and over along with passing out unconscious several times from the throwing up which lasted.
He passed out unconscious to dream of a dream. Jinx frowned recalling the dream was of himself as a fourteen year old living on the space station with his Mother who came home one evening with a bald male wearing a suit that smirked at him putting him off.
His Mother slurred her words saying towards him "Get us the wine from the kitchen now my dear sonny."
He figured that his Mother was taken advantage by the male having her drunk. That was hoping to get her in bed in some mating ritual by the smirk on the male's face.
They went to the living room which he entered the hallway leading to the bedrooms and bathrooms. He entered the kitchen due to that there was another entrance to there leading to the living room.
He pulled out a wine bottle and filled two mugs full of them. He went inside the bathroom to root around the medical cabinet. He found two packets of sleeping powder took them out and poured them into the wine after some spoon stirring.
Jinx took the cups to the living room finding his Mother and the male on the couch in some lip lock ritual. He had to clear his throat repeatedly while hoping to get the male's attention due to his Mother's deafness of unable to hear him.
He found he got the male's attention who broke off the kiss to take the cups from him with a wink. He saw them both gulp the mugs' contents down before dropping the liquid holders onto the floor and resuming their lip locking ignoring him watching. He went to the armchair waiting for the sleeping powder to take affect within them.
Jinx eyed them both in their lip ritual till they quit slumping over on the couch and his senses cued towards them indicated them asleep.
He picked up a candle and took out his lighter lighting it up and mentally spoke "Male get up."
Jinx got up seeing the male get up with eyes shut form jerkily.
He mentally ordered "Follow me."
He found his order obeyed finding the male following him out of the apartment into the hallway.
He making sure that his credit card key was in his pocket of his jeans.
He led the male through the space station ignoring people nearby thinking of getting him to the garbage deposal plant to dump himself into the burner. He shifted to eye the male seeing two cops come into view grabbing the man's arms in some lock hold. He blew out the candle and ducked around a corner eyeing the male get arrested by the cops calling him by this name of Smarty and that they were ordered to escort him off the station to Egyptia period.
Jinx found Smarty he assumed was his name protesting as he was hauled away out of sight.
He went back to his apartment shared with his Mother to find her still sprawled on the couch passed out. He smelled the alcohol on her breath from her mouth open.
Jinx sighed and dialed for emergency. He figuring out that the sleeping powder would give her a bad side affect with the alcohol. He found the paramedics were quick to arrive which instead of taking her to the hospital like he expected only gave her a shot of something water like and put her in her bedroom.
They wound up telling him "Keep the bathroom free. It's due to that the medicine would make her expel the contents of her stomach an hour after she wakes up from the effects of the medicine we gave her."
Jinx frowned recalling that he went to his room lying on his bed staring at the walls with the door open while ordering the room's alarm clock to give off a time frame every five minutes. He found an hour went by to hear the sound of door slamming twice.
He got up and peered out the bedroom at the bathroom door finding it was shut and heard a faint sound of retching inside. He figured that his mother had woken up and was doing what the paramedics had said.
Jinx exhaled air through his mouth and breathed through his nose as he lied down on the bed eyes staring at the white ceiling. He felt a memory come to his mind and allowed it through.
He recalled himself as a teenager wearing the familiar clothing of tunic top leggings and slipper like shoes on his feet fighting an older male wearing identical clothing. He saw was bearded and a bit on the overweight side with brown swords that didn’t clang when hit.
He continued to recall himself poked the sword on the male’s neck on the side and spoke in some odd accent “Got you, Ian.”
The male he assumed was named Ian spoke “Are you sure? Check where my sword is.”
He saw himself look down to see Ian’s sword poking him in the chest right over his heart. He watched from memory as himself gave up a loud roar. Then waved his hand along with brown sword while stomping his feet in an apparent tantrum before resuming sparring with Ian.
Jinx groaned from the memory as another memory of himself flashed in his mind’s eye.
He recalled it was still the beginning of school break with his junior year at high school finished while still on the space station. He frowned with grimace as he remembered being in the grocery store walking distance from home.
He asking "Do you have a job for me I can do?"
He was told by a manager "The job positions are filled up. We can’t hire anyone but are willing to keep your asking on file for our records if a position opened."
He felt anger left the grocery store walking out to meet his Mother outside. They walked in the hallways towards another doorway that housed a karate school.
Jinx remembering, fumed in anger as he recalled the karate school’s owner, Mister Lee’s nasty comment towards him "I'm not taking anybody like the looks of him to take him on as a student of my school."
He left the school with his Mother grumbling while signing in hand language "Mister Lee is rude. He seemed to be focused onto Mahalians at the moment. It's judging by the looks of the students in the school. Harrumph!"
He frowned as at night time he snuck out of the apartment carrying a candle and a lighter in his pocket of his jeans while wearing a hooded light jacket with hood covering his head.
He went
to the grocery store’s lounge room despite it for employees only. He spotted a male form on a couch still while leaning against the window showing a planet that didn't appear to be Egyptia. It appeared to be one of the seventeen planets orbiting the sun in the galaxy with Egyptia's planet as the fourth from the sun which he went to feeling curious.
He saw was a male asleep with a look of a Mahalian while wearing the grocery store’s uniform on him. He stared at the male and thought of the karate school as an idea came to his mind. He pulled out the candle and the lighter which he lit the candle and put away the lighter.
He mentally ordered towards the male “Get up.”
The male he saw obeyed, getting up with his eyes still closed while moving his form jerkily.
He again ordered mentally “Follow me.”
He walked out of the lounge room through the store ignoring people on the way not caring that they were noticing or not.
He took a route to the karate school followed by the male till they reached the glass door again ignoring people walking by them. He still not caring on them spying onto them.
He ordered “Smash yourself through the door and destroy the contents of everything inside.”
Jinks waited as the male made a running jog smashing himself through the glass door. He watched as he began using his fists and legs to cause damage to the inside as he sensed an alarm go off. He walked away carrying the lighted candle and walked across the hallway to a doorway
